After eating a meal, Xu Yu felt uncomfortable.

This doctor didn't know why, and always stared at Xu Yu with all kinds of strange eyes when eating. If it weren't for Xu Yu knowing that Dr. Zhang usually didn't have any bad comments, he would have flipped the table and let Dr. Zhang see if a hundred pounds of sledgehammer could kill people.

After finishing their meal in a hurry, the atmosphere was finally less awkward after the three of them came to the study to start today's lecture.

"Originally, Mr. Li was going to teach Dong Gongzi the content of counting today. But the old man thought about it, Xu Gongzi himself is good at counting, and presumably Dong Gongzi will naturally not be bad. In addition, after counting a class, the old man can't say much, and it just so happened that today, Dong Gongzi's hand injury reminded the old man, and after thinking about it, the old man made his own opinion, and this class taught the two sons some simple pharmacological knowledge. I wonder what the two sons think? ”

Zhang Dian sat on the master's seat and said such a thing with a ring ruler.

"Everything is up to the Master."

Dong Li has nothing to do, and it never hurts to learn more knowledge.

"Listen to the Master."

Not to mention Xu Yu, the skill of Chinese medicine was originally one of his purposes.

"Then we'll get started."

Zhang Dian doesn't talk nonsense. After seeing that the two agreed, they began today's teaching content.

"Lao Yu has been practicing medicine for many years, and he knows that if he wants to improve his medical skills, he can't just stay in one place, otherwise this place will limit the development of his own medical skills, so he followed the example of his ancestors and practiced medicine all the way to Liangzhou from the prosperous place of Jingzhou. After seeing many incurable diseases, my medical skills have finally made a little progress. ”

Zhang Dian touched his beard and said a little smugly.

As soon as he said that. No matter what their previous impression of Zhang Dian was, Xu Yu and the two couldn't help but be in awe.

People living in this era may not have a deep feeling for this sentence, after all, since ancient times, there are very few people in China who have left their hometowns unless they can't survive. Like Dr. Zhang, in order to improve his medical skills, he was willing to come all the way from such a prosperous place as Jingzhou to a desolate place like Liangzhou. Not only will people not understand, but they will also scold SB.

After all, ancient times are not like modern times, and transportation is developed. Like Dr. Zhang, from Jingzhou to Liangzhou, not to mention the difficult mountain roads and many strong people; Just walking on two legs shows how sinful it is. On the one hand, it is a superior life in Jingzhou, and on the other hand, it is disliked by people who have left their hometown. It is naturally clear which is more important than the other.

Of course, the reason why Zhang Dian admired the two was naturally not this, but that Dr. Zhang ran away in order to improve his medical skills, and he didn't know how many lives he saved and how many merits he made along the way, of course, he was worthy of the admiration of the two.

"Mr. Zhang."

The two of them quickly got up and saluted.

"The old man didn't say this to prove anything. Instead, I want to tell the two sons if they have the heart to practice medicine. You can't learn anything behind closed doors, you have to go out and see how many incurable diseases can be cured in order to improve your level. ”

Zhang Dian looked at Xu Yu as he spoke, obviously reminding Xu Yu of this sentence.

"The students got it."

Xu Yu stood up again and saluted solemnly.

"Not much to say. Then the old man began to teach today. I hope today's explanation can help the two sons. ”

Zhang Dian continued to speak, and then began today's teaching.

With this little episode of falling off the horse this morning, both Xu Yu and Dong Yan attach a lot of importance to medicine, intentionally or unintentionally. The two listened very carefully, and would get up from time to time to ask questions to Zhang Dian.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a discipline with rigorous theories. A great doctrine developed on the basis of the theory of the five behaviors of yin and yang, meridian acupuncture points.

Xu Yu personally believes that medicine is the most practical and most beneficial classic doctrine in the thousands of years of Chinese history.

Because no matter what the foundation of other schools of thought, the actual benefits to the people are not as great as imagined.

There are only doctors and farmers, one is to cure the sick and save people, and the other is to feed people. The doctrines of these two schools have the most direct relationship with the people, and are closely related to the interests of the people, and even related to life and death.

Why? In ancient times, due to the underdeveloped health system, any plague could be infected from a village at the beginning, to a city in the middle, and finally even an entire state and county.

If there were no doctors, it would have taken generations to survive and have antibodies before the plague could be completely cured. And if there were no doctors, how many people would have to die to get antibodies?

Other doctrines, like Confucianism, are as high as temples, although every policy issued will have a direct interest in the common people. But in the case of the ancient bureaucratic system, a good policy would turn bad when it was issued from the imperial court to the local government. It was originally beneficial to the people, but because of the inaction and even misinterpretation of local officials, the outcome was different.

Of course, this is not to say that there were no good officials in ancient times, but only that the contribution of Confucianism to the common people was not as great as imagined, and even less than the modern Chinese medicine, which is almost lost.

"You know the ultimate philosophy of my doctor."

At the end of the course, Dr. Zhang suddenly asked.

Xu Yu Dong Yan glanced at each other and shook his head a little confused.

"During the Spring and Autumn Period, a hundred schools of thought contended. Almost all people who can have a relationship with others are studied, trying to stand on their own. My family has a long history, and it is no exception. But because there were too many famous doctors at that time, and none of them could overpower everyone. So everyone discussed it and took Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor as their ancestor.

Although Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor has the Yellow Emperor's internal scriptures handed down to the world, his status is too high, and many expatriates say that you don't put gold on your face?

Everyone thinks about it, too, in order to be famous. The many founders of the medical family have created the foundation of our medical family.

However, because the ideal is too large, even the disciples of the medical family do not take the foundation of this school seriously, so they do not record the classics, and the many descendants of the medical family pass it on by word of mouth. ”

Zhang Dian said these words with expectation in his eyes and with fanaticism, and it was obvious that this so-called ultimate idea occupied a great place in his heart.

"I don't know what the philosophy of the school is that Mr. said."

Xu Yu Dong Yan was listening with relish, but he didn't expect Zhang Dian to stop talking about it at a critical time.

"Huh. Forget it. This concept has been passed down to the present day, and even many of the descendants of my medical family have forgotten it. It's not interesting to say it, and it's sad in my heart, so it's better not to say it. ”

Zhang Dian's eyes were a little gloomy. It seems to despise the so-called ultimate idea.

Xu Yu is very familiar with this kind of look. Just like in his previous life, he knew that he was a Young Pioneer and a flower of the motherland, but he was still beaten by the teacher every day.

It is the sadness of being very proud of one's identity, but not being recognized by others, and even being recognized by one's own people, which leads to doubts about oneself.

"Sir. Just tell me about it. In a certain opinion, the doctor treats the sick and saves people, and the merit is immeasurable. This kind of merit is not exaggerated even if it is admired by everyone and sung by everyone, and it will be passed down through the ages. ”

Feeling the sadness, Xu Yu unconsciously comforted.

Hearing Xu Yu's words, Zhang Dian's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again. But looking at the two of them with some longing eyes, he sighed and said:

"It's nothing to talk to you. But remember, after you say it, listen to it, and don't spread it out and make people laugh. ”

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, the two of us won't talk nonsense."

The two hurriedly agreed.

"Hehe, it's actually nothing."

has already decided to say it, but when the words came to the end, Zhang Dian suddenly blushed, obviously a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Xu Yu Dong Yan felt like a cat's paw scratching, and became even more curious.
